This Privacy Policy explains how Flappy Axolotl handles information when you play the game. It applies to the Android version of the game and to related Play Games Services features such as sign-in, cloud saves, and leaderboards.
## Information We Handle
Flappy Axolotl is designed to keep most gameplay information on your device. Depending on which features you use, the game may handle the following information.
### Local Gameplay Progress
The game stores progress locally on your device, including information such as:
- best score and run history
- unlocked axolotl forms, trails, titles, bundles, and cosmetics
- collected eggs, hatch dust, hatchery progress, and lore progress
- selected settings and profile choices
- local high score entries
This data is used to run the game, restore your progress, unlock content, and show your in-game achievements.
### Google Play Games Services
If you sign in with Google Play Games, Google may provide the game with Play Games account information needed for game features, such as your player identifier, display name, sign-in status, saved game access, and leaderboard access.
Flappy Axolotl uses Google Play Games Services for:
- signing in to your Play Games account
- saving and restoring your game progress with Saved Games / cloud saves
- submitting and displaying leaderboard scores
Cloud save data may include your gameplay progress, unlocks, resources, purchase-related entitlement records, and score history. This data is linked to your Google Play Games account so your progress can be restored after reinstalling the game or moving to another device.
Google handles your Google account and Play Games data under Google's own privacy terms. You can review Google's Privacy Policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
### Leaderboards
When leaderboards are enabled, the game may submit your score and related run details, such as biome, form, stage, combo, or display name. Google Play leaderboards are managed by Google Play Games Services and may show your score, rank, and Play Games profile information to you and to other players according to your Google Play Games privacy settings.
If a separate shared high score service is enabled in a future build, it may receive the score details needed to display shared leaderboard entries. Shared leaderboard entries may be visible to other players. You should not use a real name or personal information as your display name if you do not want it shown publicly.
### Score Card Saving and Sharing
The game can generate a score card image from your current result. When you choose to save the score card, the game writes the image to your device's media storage or photo gallery. When you choose to share it, Android opens the native share sheet so you can pick another app.
The selected receiving app, such as a messaging or social media app, handles the image and any message text after you choose to share it. Flappy Axolotl does not control how those third-party apps use shared content.
### Purchases
If in-app purchases are enabled, purchases are processed by Google Play. Flappy Axolotl does not receive your payment card or banking details. The game may receive purchase-related information needed to unlock content, such as product identifiers, purchase tokens, receipts, and entitlement status.
### Ads
Flappy Axolotl uses the Google Mobile Ads SDK, also known as Google AdMob, to display advertisements within the game.
Advertisements may include:
Rewarded advertisements, which you may choose to watch in exchange for continuing a dive after your current attempt ends.
Interstitial advertisements, which may be displayed automatically during post-dive transitions, such as when moving between the results screen, menus or a new dive.
When advertisements are requested or displayed, Google and its advertising partners may collect or process information including your device’s advertising identifier, IP address, general location derived from the IP address, interactions with the game and advertisements, and diagnostic or performance information. This information may be used to provide and measure advertisements, limit how frequently advertisements are shown, prevent fraud and abuse, diagnose technical issues and, where permitted, personalise advertisements.
Where required by applicable law, Flappy Axolotl will request your consent or provide advertising privacy choices. These choices may include whether your information can be used for personalised advertising, advertising measurement or related purposes. Your consent choices may be stored on your device and communicated to Google’s advertising services. You may be shown non-personalised or limited advertisements depending on your location, age, device settings and consent choices.
For more information about how Google collects and uses information, please review:
### Diagnostics
The current version of Flappy Axolotl does not include a dedicated third-party analytics or crash reporting SDK. Google Play, Android, or your device may still collect app diagnostics, crash information, and usage information according to your Google account, Google Play, Android, and device settings.
## How We Use Information
We use information handled by the game to:
- run core gameplay and save progress
- restore progress through Google Play Games cloud saves
- unlock cosmetics, hatchery content, bundles, and rewards
- show local and Google Play leaderboard scores
- generate score card images when you request them
- support purchase entitlements if purchases are enabled
- troubleshoot bugs, crashes, or support requests
- protect the game from abuse, cheating, or fraudulent activity
## Sharing Information
Flappy Axolotl does not sell your personal information.
Information may be shared in these limited cases:
- with Google Play Games Services when you sign in, use cloud saves, or use Google Play leaderboards
- with Google Play when purchases are processed
- with a leaderboard service if a shared leaderboard endpoint is enabled
- with apps you choose through the Android share sheet
- when required to comply with law, enforce rights, prevent fraud, or protect users
## Your Choices
You can choose not to sign in to Google Play Games. Some features, such as cloud saves and Google Play leaderboards, may not work without sign-in.
You can delete local game progress by clearing the app's data or uninstalling the app from your device. Score card images saved to your device remain on your device until you delete them.
You can manage Google Play Games data and account settings through your Google account and Play Games settings. You may also contact us at the email above to request help with privacy questions or deletion requests for data we control, such as shared leaderboard entries if a separate leaderboard service is enabled.
## Retention
Local game progress remains on your device until you delete the app data or uninstall the game.
Google Play Games cloud save and leaderboard data are retained according to your Google account settings and Google's policies. Shared leaderboard data, if enabled, is kept for as long as needed to provide leaderboard features, maintain game integrity, resolve disputes, or meet legal obligations.
## Children
Flappy Axolotl does not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a child has provided personal information through the game, please contact us so we can review and take appropriate action.
## Security
We use reasonable safeguards to protect game data handled by the app. No method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
## International Processing
If you use Google Play Games, Google Play, cloud saves, leaderboards, or sharing features, information may be processed in countries other than your own according to the policies of the relevant service providers.
## Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when the game changes, when new features are added, or when legal or platform requirements change. The updated version will show a new "Last updated" date.
